Summer Fun: Drive Thru Lunches

Gray came up with the idea of "drive thru lunches" last week and it was a huge hit! My house is full of boys this summer because I'm watching two of my girlfriend's little guys. That means four boys ages 2-9 to keep busy and happy.
Here is what we did:
We created two entree options, hot dog or pb&j both with watermelon slices on the side.
The kids decorated their own "to go" bags with stickers. While they decorated their bags I cut rectangles of green construction paper for money. I made 1's, 5's, & 10's. I gave the kids (all but the 2 yr. old, he was more interested in playing with cars) their money and they hopped on their bikes and "drove" around to the front porch to make their orders. While I got their orders ready they rode their bikes around. Once I was outside with their lunches,

they pulled up to the porch,

paid,

and rode off to eat in the yard. So simple but they had a blast! In fact they used their money to buy their afternoon snacks that day. I kept the money & their bags and I plan on doing this again soon.
